Since taking my first parasol out for a spin at the parks, I have received a wave of compliments both in person and in the virtual world. So, thank you to those who have said such kind words! Also, I was asked if I would be making parasols to sell. I’m still not sure om that,…

While I like to shy away from the heavier posts here, there are often some things that alter how I live my life, and therefore how I blog. This week I left my job at Disneyland. This decision is one that I have thought about for a long time, and with my Guest Relations disaster, the decision…

It’s been been two weeks since my last post, and a lot has gone on that has kept me from blogging. In my last post I mentioned I had been stressed out over something, and I was planning on sharing the reason behind that in the near future. That stressful situation has come to a…

My relationship with plants has often been described as a hateful one. As a child I went on many hikes with my dad through Oregon’s many forests, visiting majestic waterfalls and spectacular views. I loved these hikes, but as I grew up I began to get a destain for Oregon’s evergreen forests with their creeping ferns and…

You Had Questions, I Have Answers

April 28, 2015, 8 Comments

Awhile ago I did a shout out on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter asking those who follow me if they had any questions, and if I received enough I’d do a little Q&A post! Well, I did receive a good number of questions, and I got a little carried away with some answers! Alicia from Facebook said “I’m…

When You Wish Upon a Star

Things have been rather quite lately, haven’t they? Well, for good reason! I’ve been rather stressed out as I’ve had several interviews for the beginnings of my dream job. Some of you may have read in my California Bound post that “I no longer see a viable career for me here [Portland] . . . Today…

Looking Back at 2014

I can honestly say, that for someone who love the past, I hate my own. And because of this I rarely look back. Additionally, I’m not a person who looks at a New Year as a fresh start. To me, a fresh starts only come when you move, begin a new job, start at a new…

Our office was one of the last places to get settled with our move. But just recently it began to feel done, and I thought I would give you a little peek into where all of the blog and Etsy magic happens! This space isn’t just home to where I blog and list on Etsy, it…

At Home in Orange Part 2

November 13, 2014, 17 Comments

While I haven’t been feeling too hot these last few days I finally felt good enough to snap some pictures of our bedroom at our new place! Our bedroom got a bit of a western theme, as I couldn’t pass up this massive covered wagon black velvet painting my dad found, which set the tone…

This post has been a long time in the making! You are finally going to see our new apartment! Well some of it anyways. While the driving portion of our move was pretty uneventful, the settling in process of the move went slower than maple syrup on a cold day. We faced multiple hurdles, some…
